Troy Capstraw

TIFFANY ON CAPSTRAW
2025 – “He is from where? Not exactly a traditional hotbed of lacrosse, this goalie from southern Alabama has already demonstrated why he garnered the attention of many and how fortunate UVA was to have him choose to join us in Charlottesville. Troy combines broad coverage of the cage with fast hands, allowing him to be a stout stopper. Growth in understanding the intricacies of the collegiate riding and clearing game is steadily happening. Troy brings a rare strength of voice and presence for a first-year.”
